Hi! I'm Alana. When I'm not nursing cold, stale coffee, I usually can be found with the baby on my hip, barefoot, and racing after my two older kids. Thanks to a degree in psychology and a free-range childhood backing onto an expansive evergreen forest, positive parenting and play-based learning are my passions. Read more here.

It’s so rare I get a photo with all three of my It’s so rare I get a photo with all three of my babes and even still it isn’t picture perfect but I’ll take it.

When I scroll through my phone and look at my Facebook memories I realize that probably 99% of the time it’s me taking the picture, and it isn’t a selfie.

So here’s to both making more memories with all my kiddos and taking more photos of us together.

On my facebook page, this weekend, I posted an ima On my facebook page, this weekend, I posted an image of Kamala Harris with her quote, "While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last, because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities." The intent was to honour the first female to be the projected vice president in the United States.

It evoked a slew of opposing opinions, backlash and emotion. 

I received several comments that I should stick to parenting and not post political content on my page. So I wanted to make something clear. 

Parenting is political. 

Many of the articles on this page are based on how to raise children who embody the parents' values. Our values are reflected in policy and politics throughout all of our countries.

The majority of this page centres on are the rights of children to live in peaceful, respectful homes where discipline is to teach and not to hit or hurt them.

The content of this page also reflects equitable education and the developmentally appropriate treatment of children.

I believe in celebrating childhood. 

From time-to-time page also focuses on the wellbeing of marginalized groups because children deserve to see their race,  gender, and sexual orientation represented and protected in the world. Equally, each child should feel their parents have a respected place in society regardless of their skin colour, sexual orientation, country of origin, or marital status.

All of that said, this page welcomes competing ideas and differing belief systems. I am of the firm belief that liberal and conservative beliefs are important and deserve representation. 

If you aren't comfortable with this stance, you are welcome to unfollow. 

If you'd like to stay, thank you.
